I’ve got the Linux and Windows versions of Shoes 3.2.14 sorted out when it comes to using the Shoes built in gems (hpricot, sqlite3). It was mostly a problem with my build/testing setup. If the GEM_HOME environment variable is set (which rvm will set) then the Ruby inside Shoes got a bit confused. A lot confused. Don’t have rvm – not a problem. But I do have rvm and I suspect many Shoes Folks do. It was an easy fix in cache.rb to delete it, if it’s there (for sandboxed Tight Shoes). Finding that problem was a little tedious.

Shoes 3.2.14/OSX is being a bit picky and hissy. I think the otool/install-name-tool dance is required.

For convience, or continuity or ‘just because I can’, I’ve extracted Hackey Hack and made it available for download (see download tab. It works well enough for me with Shoes 3.2.14. I do not care about Hackety Hack other than Shoes 3.2 ought to be able to run it. It does. Except for the OSX problem with 3.2.14 not being available. Stay tuned.
